Thank you so much for an incredible stay at Billy’s Bothy! The Bothy was well equipped with everything we needed for a fantastic few days on the Isle of Skye. It was comfortable, cosy and immaculately clean. The view was the cherry on the cake and we felt spoilt with the additional touches of the welcome hamper & birthday blondies! Best wishes, Olivia & Jack
Tips:Food: The Stein Inn / The Three Chimneys at Talisker “pop up” restaurant / The Three Chimneys. To Do: We would recommend the local walks from the Bothy as the views were spectacular and it was quiet. Added bonus being getting to see the seals! The Talisker distillery tour and tasting was fantastic.

We loved our stay at Billy’s Bothy. The views were second to none. There were so many thoughtful touches that made the stay even better. The welcome hamper was so delicious, I wished we could’ve taken it all home. Having USB outlets to charge devices was also such a nice convenience.
Tips:Dinner at the 3 Chimneys was superb. Suggest reserving several weeks in advance. Highly recommend Just Hooked in Portree for fresh seafood. Great selection and the owner was so helpful. Also recommend Dunvegan Castle. It was my favorite castle of our trip. The grounds were beautiful and it was more authentically restored than some others.

Such a comfy stay and very well equipped/spacious. The bothy has been built to a high spec and is well finished including luxurious bathroom and furnishings. The view is spectacular. We were also provided with a lovely hamper of fresh food which was more than enough for our stay. Hosts were available if we needed but left us to get on with things as well.
Tips:Very convenient for the Three Chimneys and Dunvegan Castle. The guide book is thorough and has lots of local advice.

We had an amazing stay at Billy's Bothy. The location is great, with expansive views across the loch towards Dunvegan Castle. The place itself is nicely decorated and well appointed, a cosy place to stay no matter the season or weather. The generous hamper that the owners prepared for us was a nice touch to make it feel like a luxurious retreat. The owners were really friendly and helpful and gave us some tips on where to go and what to do on Skye. All in all we'd highly recommend staying at Billy's Bothy if you want to experience the Isle of Skye!

Billy’s Bothy is a hidden gem, a snug and cosy retreat to hide away from the world. We were blown away by the hospitality, Jane went above and beyond to make us feel so welcome. We spent at least the first hour gushing over her thoughtfulness, as well as the property itself and the stunning views. Think 5 star quality, the decor is tasteful throughout. The Bothy is stuffed full of luxury items, from expensive cookware, to locally made soaps and the most comfortable bed. The Bothy contained the best welcome guide of any accomodation we’ve stayed in. The property was spotlessly clean, well laid out, with an excellent use of space so that it felt like there was plenty of space for two girls and our ridiculous amount of luggage/stuff. We wish we could’ve stayed longer, but the Bothy provided the perfect end to a magical adventure in the highlands. Thank you Jane and family for sharing your slice of paradise with us.
Tips:Follow Jane’s recommendations. They were spot on. Enjoyed the Dunvegan for a 6 course meal, Cafe Cùil and the Bog Myrtle Cafe.

We had a superb time in Billy’s Bothy for our honeymoon. It was so lovely to drive up to the gorgeous bothy and to be welcomed by Jane with a bottle of fizz to celebrate our marriage. The bothy is filled with generous helpings of fresh breakfast food and goodies, the brownies were to die for! The bed is very comfy and the bath is lovely to settle down in after a long walk. Lovely comfy towels. We will be back to celebrate our anniversary in many years to come! Thank you!

This is such a special place. Wonderfully located, beautifully and sumptuously furnished, cosy, romantic - a perfect little bolt hole. Very warm and friendly welcome from Jane but our privacy was maintained at all times. Gorgeous and thoughtful welcome hamper including bread, croissants, homemade jams and compotes, Greek yogurt, museli and granola to name but a few! Thoroughly spoilt! Spectacular views at all times, yes, even in the rain with added bonus of a vivid rainbow! This rates as one of our best ever stays so don't hesitate you will not be disappointed.

We’ve stayed in many self catering accommodations over many years, but Billy’s Bothy surpasses them all. The location is other worldly and makes it impossible not to relax. Jane’s hospitality is second to none and left the most generous hamper of supplies, even accommodating my dietary needs. The fresh eggs from her little ladies were delicious. The bed is extremely comfortable and the linen luxurious, as is the bathroom. My only gripe is with ourselves for not booking a longer stay. Thank you Jane, we will be back.
Tips:Eilean Donan Castle is worth a visit and a good way to stretch your legs just before you reach the island. A hill climb behind the Bothy is definitely worth the effort for the views and total seclusion. Take binoculars as it’s fun watching the seals on the small island opposite the Bothy. Dunvegan castle gardens are delightful. Stein inn is a great place to eat and the gallery next door worth a visit. Book longer than two nights if you really want to make the most of this fabulous Bothy and island.

Fabulous location- the Bothy has everything you need. Would highly recommend.
Tips:The 3 chimneys meal was very nice. The Stein Inn is also worth booking. Dunvegan castle and grounds are great to visit. However, the wildlife and walks are amazing. You will need to book a minimum of 3 nights to really appreciate the area and what it has to offer.

The location is perfect. We were lucky with the weather and could see for miles across the water from Billy’s Bothy. The hamper with delicious treats was so nice to find on arrival and kept us looking forward to breakfast each and every day. The house has everything you need, it’s spotless and just a great place to come home too.
Tips:There is so much you can do on Skye, some with lots of other people, like Storr, or ones where it’s like you’re the only one. Jane has made a list of locations with tips to get the most out of your trip. It’s been really helpful getting her input.

Want to wake up to a mind-blowing view? Stay in Billy's Bothy, which has to be on one of the most beautiful spots on the island. The Bothy itself is inviting, spotless and super comfortable. I almost wanted it to rain so I could be stuck inside and make the most of the bath and fire!

Billy’s Bothy is very special. Jane has created the most gorgeous accommodation - she has thought of every little detail and everything is luxurious and perfect! The location, view over the sea loch, amenities and decor cannot be beaten. The welcome hamper was incredible - delicious freshly laid eggs from the resident hens, croissants and bread from the local bakery, milk and orange juice, home-preserved jam and marmalade - just stunning. Jane has also locally sourced lovely bathroom amenities including myrtle and heather soap - divine!
Tips:Extend your stay - it is wild, rugged and beautiful. Definitely include dinner one night at The Three Chimneys, an outstanding dining experience, however, a night by the cosy wood burner at Billy’s is also wonderful. We stayed for 6 nights and wished we could have stayed longer. So many wonderful hikes to do, the beauty of Skye is breathtaking.
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:Thank you so much for your lovely review, I’m delighted that you enjoyed Billy’s Bothy as much as I enjoyed putting it all together and despite the rather unkind weather you discovered just how wonderful Skye is!

The location and setting are perfect. Really enjoyed the amazing views over the loch and the Bothy is well equipped with a great kitchen area and bathroom. This is the place to come to get away from it all and reset the mind and body.
Tips:Quite a few super restaurants to visit in Skye including the Three Chimneys which is only a 10-minute walk from the Bothy. Edinbane Lodge is also very worth a visit as well as The Dunvegan and Stien Inn. Take a walk down to Colbost Jetty and then a walk along the coastline and look out for wildlife. Orbost beach is also very scenic and on our visit we had the place to ourselves.

Wonderful stay in a superb location - beautiful views, luxuriously equipped Bothy, comfortable bed, friendly and welcoming hosts, nothing too much trouble.
Tips:Plenty to do, see and walk to near the Bothy without it being too busy - as it can be on the other side nearer Portree. Dunvegan has a wonderful village stores for supplies, papers, etc. Choice of places to eat within a reasonable distance (Stein Inn, Dunvegan, Old Schoolhouse) and definitely worth booking the Three Chimneys if you can for a very special meal at a restaurant you can walk to within 10 mins.

Billy's Bothy is an absolute gem in Skye. The views from the Bothy were the best for any lodging we had in our 3 weeks in the highlands. The home is clean, well stocked, comfortable. Jane was very kind, attentive and provided great local advice. We will definitely be staying longer at Billy's next time we are in Skye.
Tips:3 Chimneys restaurant is a 10 min walk. Highly recommend a dinner there. The Bothy is also in easy proximity to some of Skye's best hikes (Quiraing, Storr, Fairy pools). Definitely have a tea on the bench while watching the water go by.

We had a warm welcome by Jane, the landlady. The bothy was very charming and cosy. The fridge was filled with breakfast items for the days we spent there, with fresh eggs from own yard. Comfy bed. Nice big bathroom. Own parking spot beside the bothy. Very beautiful view over the loch from your own little veranda. Very quiet.
Tips:The house is called Creag House (not Billy's Bothy), which is marked on the signpost besides the road. Restaurants nearby: The Three Chimneys (you have to reserve well in advance) at about half a mile from the bothy. A little further away towards Neish point (which is beautiful): Chidakasha Skye restaurant known as The Red Roof by locals, vegatarian, very nice restaurant.

We had a stunning view,ever changing with the weather and only wished we had stayed longer. The fridge was stocked with delicious breakfast delights and eggs from her own hens.. can’t think of anything better. We will definitely go back.
Tips:There is an extensive selection of things to do suggested in the Bothy.. we ate at The Three Chimneys which was fantastic although a little expensive! There are many alternatives. We visited Neist lighthouse and also Skye Weavers which was a delight as we had a detailed talk on how the fabrics are made and also had a little go on the pedal powered looms!

Amazing place. Stunning views. Lovely and warm. Very comfortable bed and spotless throughout. The food provided was lovely and fresh and more than enough for the duration of our stay. Finally, it was really appreciated that we were able to use and enjoy products and produce which was local to Skye and the highlands. As a result we ended up visiting those places to purchase some of our own.

The house is in a stunning location with breathtaking views. The accommodation is lovely - a huge room with an incredibly comfortable bed and an en-suite with the most amazing rainforest shower. Furthermore, guests have their own lounge with TV and a real fire. The breakfast is outstanding - there is a wonderful array of choices and some real attention to detail. However, the most important aspect is that Jane and Neil are exceptional hosts who will go out of their way to make sure you have a wonderful stay.

Fabulous service! Hosts couldn’t have done more to make us feel welcome. Delicious tea and cake in the afternoon. Our room was spacious and luxurious. It was the most wonderful B&B experience, and the view while eating breakfast is stunning!
Tips:Lovely dinner at the Three Chimneys (just up the road) and short drives to a great variety of local walks, - we particularly liked Ramasaig. Worth buying one of the local walking guides, although Creag House also have them for reference. Enjoyed Dunvegan Castle too.

We had a fantastic stay in Skye - just one afternoon of rain. The B&B was a great place to stay. Jane and Neil looked after us very well. Lovely and friendly, great location and views and fantastic breakfasts. Our room No 2 was so comfortable and a lot bigger than I expected. It was great to have a fantastic shower after a week of weedy dribbles on the mainland
Tips:We were apprehensive about going to 3 Chimneys for my birthday but it really exceeded our expectations; great food and service and only a short walk away. It is expensive - but worth it for a treat. I would definitely go back. The walk around Ramasaig is fantastic - especially in beautiful sunshine. We did not see anyone else the whole way - but had great view of eagles. It can be tricky to find places open at lunchtime / late afternoon - so make sure you have some emergency rations

We really enjoyed our stay at Creag House! Jane and Neil were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. They exceeded our expectations in assuring we had a wonderful stay. We really appreciated the dinner recommendation and local walking suggestions! The views from our room were stunning and the living room was a great added touch. Jane cooked the most delicious breakfast! I especially loved the Stornaway black pudding! We would definitely book here again upon our return. Creag House holds a mood and style that suits the beautiful Isle of Skye!
Tips:We ate at Three Chimneys and Edinbane Lodge. Both were excellent. We felt that Edinbane Lodge was better value for our money and the food was on par with Three Chimneys. The seal boat tour at Dunvegan Castle is highly recommended! It was amazing to see so many of these lovely creatures lying in the sun! We enjoyed a walk at Coral Beach. I think you could walk anywhere in that area and see a gorgeous view.

Everything was excellent, room, bathroom, endowment like towels, and other bathroom accessories, tea, coffee machine. Room has an wonderful view over the bay and with a good camera objective and monocle we just see 3 seals on a little island close from land. Breakfast at high standards and quality every day as other customers mentioned. Jane is very attentive at your needs, not to mentioned the cookies or cake which were great. Thanks, you made for us a perfect stay.
Tips:Well, people said the Colbost has a weak point being at the edge of the island. Its not true. We took advantage of the position for having in the evening 2 marvellous trips taking a perfect sunset at Neist Point and an evening to Coral Beach which is also close enough (no more than 10 miles by car). Is just perfect for starting Trotternish tour - or the middle of island with its hidden gem, Talisker Bay or for visiting Dunvegan Castle in a rainy time. More, the landscape and the atmosphere is closest of island spirit but I recognize I did not like crowds as I see for example at Fairy Pools. Fine meal at Old School with no reservation, but no time for 3 Chimney Resturant which is so close.

We spent 16 days traveling to every corner of Scotland and our time on Isle of Skye was the highlight of our trip! Jane made our stay at Creag House a lasting memory. She's absolutely wonderful and her breakfasts were outstanding!!
Tips:Be sure to book reservations at Three Chimneys Restaurant, one-half mile down the road, well in advance. This was easily the best meal we had on our trip and possibly the best meal we've ever eaten. Seriously.

Jane and Neil's home is just gorgeous, and we felt extremely welcomed throughout our stay. We had a really super stay, and would love to go back.
Tips:We thoroughly enjoyed walking to the coral beach; loved the remoteness of Waternish Point with fabulous views of the Western Isles; the Old Man of Storr offered stunning views of the mainland and islands. We ate at The 3 Chimneys, a short walk from Creag House, and the food was just so special and amazing. Plus we ate at Scorrybreac at Portree, where food was also very high quality.

Jane and Neil were the best hosts. The accommodations were well above expectations. The room was spacious and having an en suite bathroom was great. It was clean and beautifully decorated. The breakfasts were scrumptious. They also were very helpful in helping us to learn all about the island and where the sights were that wee were wanting to see.
Tips:Lots of places to see on Isle of Skye. Dunvegan Castle was great and close to the B&B, as well as Neiste Pointe Lighthouse. We also visited the Fairy Pools and the Man of Story. We also drove to Portree one day and looked around. There are several restaurants close by but reservations are required in most of them. There a a few that do not require reservations and are very good also.

Jane and Niall were lovely hosts. They recommended where to have dinner and attended to our every need- including delicious afternoon tea! The home-cooked breakfast is simply the best we have ever had, with a stunning view to top it off. The room was lovely, comfortable and modern. The views from our window were unbeatable. The shower was modern with several modes. Every detail was carefully thought of- from coasters for your tea by the bed to bath robes.
Tips:Neist Point if it’s not foggy/cloudy, wildlife cruises from Uig, Claigan Coral Beaches, a seafood or fish meal with local products, a bit of an off ride to areas off your GPS, Portree.

A very warm welcome awaits at Creag House. Very comfortable, large en-suite room with glorious views across the loch. A large guest sitting room with big TV and delicious home-made cake! Fantastic breakfast and welcoming hosts. We felt completely at home here. Highly recommended.
Tips:This is a remote part of Skye with few tourist facilities. Make sure you know where you are going to eat on the first night - the (very good) Old School restaurant in Dunvegan is the only eating place within 20 minutes' drive, apart from fine dining at The Three Chimneys.

We had a really wonderful stay at Creag House. They have thought of everything. The house is immaculate yet relaxing. To be welcomed with a lovely wood burning stove lit for us and coffee with chocolate cake was very spoiling. Breakfasts were delicious and we also enjoyed watching the ever changing view.
Tips:it Is only a short walk to the three chimneys restraunt where we enjoyed a wonderful meal. Jane kindly cooked dinner for us on the second night- a delicious chicken pie. We enjoyed a atmospheric walk to Neist Point lighthouse.

We really enjoyed our stay at your place and to us it was almost bit like staying at a friends place. The house, our room, the view and not to forget the fantastic breakfast (best start for a day) - what else does one need for a perfect holiday? (okay, nice weather would have been fine ;-) If ever we should come to Skye again, definitely to Creag House. hank you for spoiling us and hope to see you again.
Tips:The restaurant "the old school" is a good place for a nice dinner. Good food, nice service and reasonable price. For a bit a special and more luxury dinner I recommend "the three chimmneys". Excellent food, very good service and just that little something extra.

Our stay with Jane and Neil was absolutely lovely. Their house is on a quiet part of Loch Dunvegan with an amazing view of the Loch. It was so quiet and peaceful out there, we were a bit reluctant to go out and explore the rest of Skye as planned since we felt like we could stare out the window for hours! When we first arrived, we were warmly greeted and offered tea and coffee and some cakes in their guests' sitting room that has a lovely view. The room was clean and inviting, and the bed quite comfortable. If you're a light sleeper, just know that since Creag house has two rooms for guests, you might hear guests in the other room. It didn't bother us at all though. Jane cooked us a lovely breakfast both days that we were there. It was a great way to start each day! Highly recommend this place to other travelers. Thank you Jane and Neil!
Tips:Creag House is a five minute walk to the Three Chimneys restaurant (which if you go, try their house made gin - it's amazing!) It's also a relatively short drive to Neist point light house, which we visited at sunset on the day we arrived.

Loved it here. Stayed 2 nights and it was a great introduction to Skye. Stayed in the king size bedroom which was beautifully furnished and the bed was extremely comfortable. Great ensuite bathroom with very good shower and lovely little touches like the coffee machine in the bedroom. The house itself is lovely - one of those places that just feels 'right' and guests have sole use of a sitting room downstairs, which, like the dining room, has a view over the Loch that is mesmerising. Breakfasts were excellent too, as was the cake and tea that greeted us on arrival. The owners are warm and welcoming and it really does feel like you've recharged your batteries staying here. Says something that although we did sample 'The Three Chimneys', it is the B&B that made the visit for us.
Tips:Plenty to see around the property in both directions.

Absolutely wonderful. Your home has such a lovely aura about it that it instantly made us feel welcome. I'm really glad that I couldn't get accomodation elsewhere and fortuitously booked your home. I really do hope that you continue to keep it open for a short while every year so I have a reason to return to Colbost!
Tips:Take a bit of food supply with you because if you don't really feel like eating out for a meal, the nearest convenience store is quite a trip and there is no local takeaway! If you don't want to drive far for dinner, make sure you book a table at the three chimneys. I saw people being turned away and being told the next nearest restaurant was a 20 min drive away. Visit the galleries, coral beach, niest point, and enjoy the living room!

Creag House sets the bar at a whole new level. A view to die for, homely comfortable surroundings, relaxed and make yourself at home type of place..... so much more than just a B&B for so much less than you would have thought possible. We particularly liked the tea and homemade cake on arrival, the view of the seals and wildlife from the large bay window, the very comfortable bed, the very nice biscuits with your tea in the morning....the list is endless....just go there! Honestly there aren't word to describe how much we enjoyed our stay and would like to return.
Tips:The Edinbane Inn was really excellent....not expensive...the staff were very friendly....highly recommended although about a 20 min drive from Creag House. Obviously the Three Candles is about half a mile from Creag House and therefore the closest restaurant but we had been put off by reports we had read online.

Our experience of Creag House was that it was really warm and welcoming. We loved the homeliness. The breakfast in the morning was amazing with a view to die for!
Tips:The three Chimneys restaurant is only a 5 minute brisk walk where some of the best food (if not the best) in the UK is served. There are lots of arts and crafts galleries to explore. Skyescape studio was a short drive away and had some breathtaking landscape photography. There are also a number of beautiful walks, The Old Man of Stor, The Quiraing and The Fairy Pools are some of the best we tried.
Would Recommend: Yes
